Free ECD App for any early learning centre in South Africa
Finally! A one-stop-shop for ECD Centres.
The app for centre owners and principals helps you manage your entire preschool from just one device. We designed this app for our 45 Grow ECD across the country and when many other preschools asked if they could use it too, we decided to make it available at no cost. It’s our gift to you.

I am enjoying the business of running a preschool again. This app – it’s like a computer in my hand. I am saving time, I am learning how to be more independent and in control of my business, and I am getting more time to work with my teachers and the children.
ECD TEACHERS can use this free app too
The Meerkat app helps you manage your classroom, assess your learners, develop your skills and engage with parents. (Only available to teachers who’s centre owners are using Grow ECD Giraffe).

I am using the data-free training to improve my skills and I also download lots of education resources. Daily attendance is so easy now – I just tap! I am proud to work in a school that's more professional and using technology.

My child’s development is so important to me – and now I feel like I am a more active part of his life. With the app I can track his attendance and see his progress.
